The title "Reader's wounds" came from my friend Rockabilly Steve in reference to some rather unsavoury act he concocted to do with an extra orifice that was a result of surgery, and the business potential regarding the aftermath.

Croydon is about Croydon.

£11.58 is the name of the song, not the cost of it. Only Thurston Moore thinks it's alright to charge that for one song nowadays, but he was in Sonic Youth.

I have a fetish for exaggeration.
Some drums appear in these recordings entirely by accident, some are hidden better than others.

In the meantime I recommend stocking up on Findus crispy pancakes and buckling in whilst the government drives the bus off the fucking cliff.
